In the first part of my career, I was usually told I was their second choice. But their number one pick chose another offer and I got that Fortune 500 job. So perseverance works. Now a couple decades later, I have the problem that nobody believes anybody can be that good on the short offline tests. So I have to schedule skype interviews where the interviewers can see me and and verify that I know far more than they do. The second problem is actually the more difficult problem to have, but there's a certain sense of accomplishment. I'll deal with it. :)
